The impetus for this event was SDForum’s interest in producing a top-notch conference with a regional focus but with broad Ruby/Rails
appeal. SDForum asked Ruby Central to co-produce the event, and
the Silicon Valley Ruby Conference is the result.

Who should attend this conference? Everyone who didn’t get into
RailsConf. Plus, everyone who DID get into RailsConf! Don’t let the
subtle marketing fool you: this is one of the major Ruby/Rails events
of the year.
